Yesterday, Philip attended a special reception at the Mayfair Hotel, London to celebrate 25 years of Raindance Film Festival.

​Raindance was formed in 1992 and is dedicated to fostering and promoting independent film around the world. Based in the heart of London, Raindance combines Raindance Film Festival (taking place since 1993), training courses and the British Independent Film Awards.

Philip is to take a leading role in Audible's new version of Treasure Island. alongside Danny Mays, Catherine Tate and Owen Teale. The producer, Audible, have sent us the following press release:

Audible Originals takes to the high seas to bring to life this timeless tale of pirates, lost treasure maps and mutiny, starring BAFTA-nominated Catherine Tate (The Catherine Tate Show, The Office, Doctor Who), Philip Glenister (Outcast, Life On Mars), Owen Teale (Game of Thrones, Pulse, Last Legion) and Daniel Mays (The Adventures of Tintin, Rogue One, Atonement) amongst others.When weathered old sailor Billy Bones arrives at the inn of young Jim Hawkins' parents, it is the start of an adventure beyond anything he could have imagined. When Bones dies mysteriously, Jim stumbles across a map of a mysterious island in his sea chest, where X marks the spot of a stash of buried pirate gold. Soon after setting sail to recover the treasure, Jim realises that he's not the only one intent on discovering the hoard. Suddenly he is thrown into a world of treachery, mutiny, castaways and murder, and at the centre of it all is the charming but sinister Long John Silver, who will stop at nothing to grab his share of the loot.One of the best-loved adventure stories ever written, Robert Louis Stevenson's 1881 novel introduced us to characters such as the unforgettable Long John Silver, forever associating peg-legged pirates with 'X marks the spot' in our cultural consciousness. Following the success of the double Audie Award-winning Rudyard Kipling's The Jungle Book: The Mowgli Stories, Audible Originals UK are excited to announce this reimagination of Stevenson's coming-of-age story that will captivate all of the family.

Philip is no stranger to Stevenson;s tale - in 2012 he played Captain Smollett in Sky One's adaptation of the story, which also starred Danny Mays as Dr David Livesey.. It's not yet know which characters they will be playing in this new audio version.

Philip was reunited with his 'For the Love of Cars' co-host this week as they attend both the Jimmy's Farm Festival and the Silverstone Classic Car event.

​At Jimmy's Farm, they enjoyed food, music and experienced the joy of a helter-skelter while at the Silverstone Classic Phil had to watch on in horror as Ant flipped his car during the celebrity challenge race. Luckily, Ant sustained only minor injuries, but it was all very dramatic.

On Friday, Philip took part in the Mini Masters - a golf tournament hosted by Dougray Scott, in aid of the cancer charity, Leuka. In this tournament teams pay a fee to have a celebrity play with them. Alas, Philip's team didn't win. Other celebrities involved this year included James Nesbitt, Tim LoveJoy, and Denise Van Outen.

​The total amount of money raised has not yet been announced - we will bring it too you when we know.

The cast of Living the Dream were filming in Savannah this week. Their location, Red Gate RV Park off Chatham Parkway, provides the backdrop to the show; the trailer park that Philip's character, Mal, buys for his family.

The scenes being filmed were from the first episode, when the family first arives and sees their trailer park for the first time. You can see some of the images from filming in the slideshow below, thanks to the Savannah Morning News.

The cast and crew of the show have also been out and about in the evening; watching co-star Leslie Jordan's one-man show at Club One. Here's a pic from the clubs official Twitter account:

Living the Dream continues filming in Savannah and is expected to air later this year.

The series 2 finale of Outcast aired in the UK last Monday and my goodness, what an episode.

​The Rev got his flock back and raised an army of God, tearing up some scripture along the way and we finally found out what the deal with Kyle's Dad was.

​We have over 100 images from the episode in our screencap gallery, but please be aware there may be spoilers contained within the images.

There's no news yet of whether the show has been renewed for a third season, but rumours on the internet appear to indicated that it has not. We're hoping that isn't the case. There are still so many questions to answer. We will, as usual, report on the status of the show when we hear officially.
